MClaren MP4 12C

Not really an "item" that will end up in my wardrobe any time soon - or any where near me for that matter. Don't get me wrong, it's not because I don't want it, but simply because it's completely out of my budget range, so much so it's not even funny. I pride myself in sharing with you affordable clothes and items for the average students/working woman. So forgive me for this not so affordable post :) However, I tagged along with my dad last week to the MClaren Brussels showroom opening where the MClaren MP4-12C car sat on display and still wanted to share with you the pictures from the evening. It was a different kind of event but nonetheless a very fashionable and interesting one. I was lucky enough to chat with the creative mind behind this first ever 'street legal' MClaren - Design Director Frank Stephenson whom attended the opening. I have to say he was as vibrant as the car itself, sharing with us many anecdotes of the fascinating world of automobile design.

The MClaren MP4 12C which was on display was definitely fitting with this fall's colour palette and go to colour - bright orange. Thus if you have the money, and you want to splurge on the perfect orange item may I suggest this beauty. If, like me you don't have that kind of cash lying around I am sure you can find the perfect item as most retailers are doing quite a few pieces in this colour palette. I, on the other hand, must be careful went it comes to orange, as Connie Wang puts it "one orange item too many, and one can look more traffic-cone than traffic-stopper", and as am already sporting my orange do on a daily basis I will need to pick wisely. Any suggestions?
